I catch very strange error while testing:
NoMethodError in 'VotingsController handling POST /votings should redirect
to index if success'
You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.save
Strange, because I'm stub my @voting.
This is my test:
describe "handling POST /votings" do
before(:each) do
login_user #login helper, stub login_requered and return @user
@voting = mock_model(Voting)
controller.stub!(:create_voting).and_return @voting
end
def do_post
post :create
end
it "should redirect to index if success" do
@voting.stub!(:save).and_return true
do_post
response.should redirect_to(votings_path)
end
#something else
end
And there is my controller:
class VotingsController < ApplicationController
before_filter :create_voting, :only => [:create]
#some stuff there
def create
respond_to do |format|
if @voting.save
...
end
end
end
private
def create_voting
@voting = Voting.new(params[:voting])
@voting.author = current_user
end
end
P.S. but this tested fine
def create
@voting = Voting.new(params[:voting])
@voting.author = current_user
respond_to do |format|
if @voting.save
...
end
end
end
